Ay-ay-ay-ay, ay-ay-ay-ay (X2)
South of the border,
down Mexico way,
That's where I fell in love, when the stars a-bove came out to play.
And now as I wander,
my thoughts ever stray, south of the border,
down Mexico way.
She was a picture
in old Spanish lace, and, for a tender while, I kissed a smile u-pon her face.
For it was fi-esta
and we were so gay, south of the border,
down Mexico way.
Then she sighed as she whispered, "ma-nana", never dreaming that we were parting,
And I lied as I whispered, "ma-nana", for our to-morrow never came.
